html formatted email, CSS and hotmail

[liunx]

So my client is breathing down my neck because his newsletter is not displaying CSS at all. The text is supposed to be blue and defaults to the generic black text you see when you type in no font or css attributes. Anyone know why. i thought maybe it was because the html email was linked to an external style sheet so i transfered the CSS info to the actual page but it still doesn't work. It looks perfect in apple mail, outlook and yahoo. please help!!!is there any option on Hotmail about HTML pages. you may have it turned off.Tough problem. The only solution I have found to this is to use inline CSS styles. When Hotmail receives an HTML email it rips the head off of it completely. This will affect both external and embedded style sheets. Therefore the only workaround is to use inline CSS styles for every tag in the body of the email. Note that Hotmail doesn't support all CSS tags and chokes quite badly on most of the positioning ones: absolute and relative. You may need to use a hybrid layout. Good luck.
